This is the 3rd "Like" I've given you in this thread, kudos sir, you "get it".
That said, my 14 year old son has promised me, no matter what, he will go to college and get a degree, a Masters at least. I've "indoctrinated" him, if you will, to the notion that I want him to be better prepared for life than I was, and that I want him to be able to have more choices and opportunities in life, and by and large I still feel a degree, preferably an advanced degree, will give him that chance.
I agree with the fact that the far left has, without question, taken over higher ed, but I've also taught my son strong conservative principles, (let's not devolve into a left vs. right debate on this please), while also teaching him to be a kind and considerate human being. He understands the far left's agenda quite well now, and understands the concept of a free college education paid for by "govt"., (taxpayers), is simply stupid at the least, and morally corrupt at worst. He understands Socialism is a failed experiment, one that seeks to control every facet of our lives.
In any event, I still want him to get that degree, as I feel he will be able to go further in life than his father did, as I dropped out of college thinking, I suppose, that I would be a strong, healthy guy all my life and make very nice $$ being, in essence, a pro welder. I'm medically disabled, and would have no problem collecting S/S disability should I want, but I choose to work and live a little better, and to show the only child I have left that you can continue to make something of your life without govt "assistance".
I believe you have to prepare your children, as best you can, for everything life will throw at them, so even though the far left idiots are running the universities, I still want my kid to become educated, and to get that degree. Rant over, lol.
